Abstract

This research examines religious moderation at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Negeri (MIN) 1 Bintan, focusing on the children of the Sea Tribe from Kampung Panglong, Desa Village, Bintan Regency, Riau Islands Province, who choose to attend this madrasah despite being Catholic and Protestant. This study employs historical research methods, with data collection through field interviews and literature studies. The results indicate that in the 2024/2025 academic year, there are 10 non-Muslim children from the Sea Tribe attending MIN 1 Bintan. There are three main factors that lead them to choose this school: first, the relatively close distance to their village; second, the historical factor, as since the 1990s, Sea Tribe children have been attending MIN 1 Bintan and the school has actively approached the Sea Tribe leader to facilitate their education; and third, the comfort factor, where Sea Tribe children feel comfortable attending school MIN 1 Bintan. In practice, there are four well-maintained indicators of religious moderation in this school, namely national commitment, tolerance among students of different ethnicities and religions, the absence of coercion to convert to another religion or wear Islamic attributes, and the absence of violence and respect for the local culture of the Sea Tribe. These findings show that MIN 1 Bintan can become a pilot madrasah for religious moderation in Riau Islands Province.

Abstract

This paper discusses the history of the Muhammadiyah school in Tanjungpinang City. Writing using historical research methods. The data collection was carried out through literature studies and interviews. The Tanjungpinang branch of Muhammadiyah was established in 1939, but the Muhammadiyah school came later. The Junior High School (SMP) was established in 1961. The Muhammadiyah school in Tanjungpinang has experienced a golden age because it was one of the pioneers in the existence of private schools. The formation of the Riau Archipelago Province in 2004 with the capital in Tanjungpinang ironically did not have a positive impact on the development of Muhammadiyah schools. This condition contrasts with the development of Muhammadiyah schools in Batam City which are progressing rapidly. Weaknesses in management in the management of education caused the Muhammadiyah school in Tanjungpinang to experience setbacks. Another reason is that there are Muhammadiyah figures in Tanjungpinang who built and have Islamic educational institutions which are far more advanced and developed than Muhammadiyah schools.
